The Truth about Billionaires (Southern Billionaires Book 2) by Michelle Pennington {Review}

Source: I received a copy, which had no influence on my thoughts and opinions

He's all business and she's got a lot to prove. Love was not on the agenda.

Jill
Harris is determined to prove she deserves her position at her father’s
consulting firm, so the last thing she has time for is dating. Since
her only experience with love ended in heartbreak, she isn’t tempted to
break her own rule—until she meets Blake McDaniel. When she’s asked to
take a job working with Blake, it’s a great step in her career, but the
more time she spends around the attractive, determined billionaire, the
harder it is to remember why she wants to stay single.

Blake has
one rule for himself when it comes to relationships: He won’t date a
woman who’s already married to her career. After watching his mother’s
many failed marriages, he knows it just won’t work. But then Jill comes
into his life, brilliant and capable…and entirely too fascinating. Even
though he has no intention of falling for her, he just can’t seem to
stay away. But when suspicion clouds their future, will he be able to
follow his heart?

My Review: 4 Stars

Jill and Blake are both completely committed to their careers and are very determined individuals. Not only are they each professionally driven, but they both have strict rules regarding relationships. They are similar in many ways, but very different in others.

I love that Jill and Blake have a mutual attraction and that they work hard to be themselves. Their banter is witty and fun and their chemistry is great. But... one little issue: Blake has a tendency to jump to conclusions. I get that he has trust issues, but it made me feel a little mad at him. Thinking about that makes me realize that this is a great book because it did evoke some pretty deep and various emotions--obviously.

I love a journey of growth and self-discovery and found that within these pages. This is a fun book to escape into.
